Community Insight:
Best mobile game we been addicted to this for idek like 2 weeks lol so fun must play trust.
Love this game, very addictive and fun but we bought the AFK Assist pack and we were charged but we never received it in game. Emailed the devs twice and no response.
Really good and provides lots of ways to grind and earn. Consistently having a good time when we get on 9/10. Psa- without WiFi can still be very much enjoyed and doesnt force ads on you.
This is the only review Ive ever left in our life, get this game.
Are we serious its addictive and we mean it having all these stats on top of stats keeping you hooked all the time and we always see the dev doesnt care anymore well weird way of saying this but neither does the devs for tf2 and that had a fan base of 20 years and this just prove its still gold cinema.
We love this game, endless boredom killing while we sit in our tech school day after day getting a degree lol. Our only thing that makes us not give it 5 stars, is Ive been hard stuck at about 1375 for weeks, and we play everyday. No matter what it seems like unless we get a good weapon, or spend a month painstakingly upgrading stats (of which this style of game is something we pride ourselves on, so Im not upgrading inefficiently) it seems Ill never move forward. We think the main issues is the next ascension for skills is at 1460, which is extremely difficult to reach in the first place. It will likely be 2 weeks of being stuck by the time we reach 1400. Anyway, other than that minor issue which seems to be just a specific point of the game that is a little too difficult, we love the game and truly love the set up and style. We love this style of game and its a pain to find good ones, this is one of them. And normally we prefer the idle style of this kinda thing, so the fact we actually have to interact with it a bit more and we still like this game so much says a lot about how we feel about it. Good job to the developers, we just downloaded the new update as of typing this and Im excited to see what you added and if itll be part of our new strats.
They need to change the epic drop rate for weapons and heros and show tiny little videos show different effects on weapons and heros.
Game difficulty or stats were adjusted and Ive essentially been landlocked. Plz help.
We love the game so much so that we got the $5 no ad pack and happy to get a permanent x2 bonus on most currency. We assumed that the x2 bonus would apply automatically after every day since we no longer have to watch an ad for it, but that wasnt the case. You pay $5 for no ads but you still have to tap the ad button for the bonus. Very annoying, and not worth it in our opinion so we will be refunding the pack. Other than that, the game is amazing.
This game is one of our absolute favorites. The gameplay never gets stale, and theres nothing quite like mowing down millions of monsters with legendary weapons and heroes. Why, on our other account, we have a full team of legendaries, and some to spare! We are extremely picky, sometimes browsing the App Store for hours on end to no results, and this game has won us over.
This game was our childhood bro we love that it didnt die and they kept on updating it.
Game was fun and amazing when we played, passed the time a lot, got to like day 1000 or more we think, had a few legendary weapons, but one day we just lost all our progress for no reason, Think its because we didnt have a email locked on our account, So Im coming back to this game and making sure we wont lose an account.
We really like this game we rate it five stars but the problem is whenever we enter the game it says your file data is incompatible with this version. Install 2.1.3 version even tho 2.1.3 hasn't even came out. We cant fix it.
First of all, this game is INCREDIBLE. Im shocked it isnt more popular. Ive seen some reviews saying its pay to win (skill issue), never updated (look at the update logs), and repetitive (despite the many unique features it presents). One thing to notice is that all those reviews are 3-4 YEARS old, back when the game was not as developed and therefore these reviews are irrelevant. Recently we have been blown away with the multiple major updates coming out almost every month, bringing amazing new content that sometimes completely revamps the game. We cannot truly express our love for this game in words, but we can try: This may just be the best mobile game ever made. Thank you to the dev(s) who made this game a reality.
Ive only just started and im at like day 3.2k and we think this is the best mobile games ive ever played. It is almost endless and there are so many cool feature the game is just so great to go so unnoticed. We prob wouldnt have made it this far without mundus tho 10/10 would play this game.
The game is really good, but there are some problems to it. It is fun and all but there are 2 important things that need to be fixed. First is the fact that rewinds take forever. Im on like day 1100 and the rewinds take absolutely FOREVER. Can you make them shorter? Also, the animation for the mini gun is kinda wierd. When we use it, the first thing we notice is that there is FIRE COMING OUT OF MY BACK. It makes us feel like a dead spirit playing tower defense. And during rewinds or if you watch an ad to get X2 coin multiplier, the bullets go so fast that it looks like they are getting sucked into the weapon. Last thing is that When the machine gun is fully ramped up and you move the weapon side by side, the bullets kinda shift out of the weapon, making it look like the bullets are halfway in the mini gun and half way out. Can you plz fix this? Otherwise its a great game.
We LOVE THIS GAME PLEASE DONT LET IT DIE.
Days Bygone is a really fun game but is kind of complex and a little confusing at times but overall is a really fun game. We even play it every day, its our favorite game.
Get this game it is the best game you will ever play not ai 11/10.
We love the game and their discord id great for helping lower level plays progess but we havent been able to log in from our mac in weeks and they dont respond to emails to help us figure out the problem.
This game is amazing, it's relaxing to play, the gameplay is good, and we love the fact ads aren't required. We suggest getting this.
Days bygone is an amazing game but we feel like it needs a new update It needs TRADING! You can trade with friends and trade helpful stuff to them and they can give helpful stuff to you. We have always been wanting to trade our dad or our brother but we can because there is no trading in days bygone. So for the people who made this game please next update add trading.
We played it without expecting much and it was pretty much just as we expected. The gameplay was bland, it is very heavy on grinding your a out. The graphic is subpar, not to say the pixel art is bad but the inconsistent graphic is somewhat annoying. It feels too much like a bunch of different asset packs with little to no resemblance. But for a simple TD to kill some time, it is still above average.
We absolutely love this game to prices and it is one of the best Defense games we have ever seen, but there is one problem, multi save is not a thing in this game. We would love to support your game on our YouTube channel, but we dont want to reset our save. It would be very much appreciated if you could add this feature. Thank you.
Dont spend any money they can delete your account after a certain time not playing the game. The support is useless so good luck trying to get help the dmv is much faster. The big thing if you watch an ad there a chance to not get rewards. The biggest thing they can ban you for whatever reason and they dont need to explain at all.
One of the best games Ive ever played better than any console game Ive played.
This game is great! The only thing we thing you should add is a small rewind button that you can easily click while you are fighting in the campaign, and if you have bought AFK assist it will auto rewind while AFK at an adjustable day. We that would make this game a lot less awkward. The rewinding is such a pain and unintuitive. We believe it would keep a lot more people active and playing your game. It also make this AFK assist much more appealing to your players increasing your profits.
Love the game and how long you can play and how you can be competitive with your friends but we wish iOS users could use the referral to get some gems like android users can.
This game Has some enticing upgrades, some interesting dialogue, and gameplay that seems fun and potentially addictive…uh oh Update: Yup its what we thought. 8 hours later we're still playing this! Crap! Do not play this if you have things to do. Although, the dialogue has stopped. We liked the dialogue and you guys should keep writing a story for this.
The thing we like about this game is projectial damage and fighting.
We usually don't write reviews, but this game was really good and we send our thanks out to the developer(s), and their team, who worked on this game. This game is great for all target demographics, from the busy players who don't have much time, but still want to have fun, to the players who have all the time in the world, and need to spend some of it, the casual players and the players who play a bit too competitively, it appeals to those all around. The actual gameplay mechanics are great too. Very simplistic and easy to pick up, and you can do many things with the simple mechanics that stems from just being able to throw a projectile, by holding down your finger. Costs for player upgrades scale fairly, and no matter how far you're into the game, always makes it so you never spend hours stuck on upgrading for a single level on a single stat. The weapons mechanic is great too, being able to stem off from simply throwing a sword to being able to throw numerous other things at enemies, each of which have unique properties. The hero mechanic allows for the game to play idle, which is pretty standard, but great, nonetheless. Feedback? It's a great game, but it has a few minor things that we think personally could be fixed and/or improved on. When in a battle, normal mobs seem to have some sort of invulnerability until a certain time has passed or until they pass a certain distance on the battlefield, we're not sure how it works. However, it would be nice if this mechanic could be either reduced, or gotten rid of altogether, mainly just for the fact it extends battle time and for some enemies allows them to activate an ability that makes them harder to kill. Also stemming from battle, is the automatic next stage feature. This is great, however we think there should be a toggle in the menu that allows for a shortening, or altogether skipping of the timer, similar to how stage progression after a rewind works. So, what's the takeaway? It's an amazing game, with many things that make it fun and always interesting, and it's simple and easy to play as well, and a great appeal to many players with differing preferences. Thank you, Frivolition team for making this amazing game, and keep up the hard work.
Mi amigo us lo enseo y us gusto, luego consegu muchas armas raras (azules) que deberan ser legendarias porque us pas los niveles ez.
Fun game, similar to idle but more active on your part which is nice, unlocking stuff and forming a team and leveling up is actually pretty entertaining, but the ads for double good dont work half the time (as in we watched the stupid ad and at the end when you get to go back it doesnt load that you watched it, almost deleted the game a few times from that) and the double gold after you re-wind is a game changer. Game does get repetitive and less fun often since its only a few bosses and mobs in rotation for hundreds of levels.
We love it its super fun and we love the way you have to kill mobs love the texture overall 5star.
Amazing Gameplay With Literally No End.Im Sad It Doesnt Get More Recognition.we Would Ten Star If we Could.
Lots of weapons, upgrades, skills, perks. Love this game, can play for days.
We Love This Game!!! We have been playing for a week and we got so far 6 purple category items! We suggest this to many F2P players. The only thing that we want is that the legendary items to be atleast a 4% chance because we havent gotten any! Overall great game.
This game provides you with a enjoyable gaming experience, it has unlockable helpers, weapons,and spells. It has upgrades to help with your attacking and other thing. It has it all.
We downloaded this game since it didnt require WiFi and didnt expect much, but we got a lot of really amazing content. Characters with story and mystery and addictive gameplay. This is a truly amazing game.
The game is great. Gameplay, which is always the same, is still fun to this day. Our only problem with the game is that it links a lot of data to your identity.
Use our referral code for in game bonuses : 732TODE2 Game is fun you wont regret ! Awesome leveling mechanics and really addictive play style.
We like playing a bunch of mobile games here and there and found a lot of good games but it does not compare to this. There are no forced ads which is something we really like and kind of rare. There are even frequent updates and this style of game is our favorite types of games. Very fun game recommend downloading.
We know it's amazing and all, but what day do you unlock hunt idk when hunt is unlocked like is it a WIP? We tried looking on reddit and no one we saw said when hunt is unlocked. Help us pls. Maybe it's just a thing we will unlock at like day 1K? We're exactly 844 more days away from 1 thousand. So yeah we kinda just need a little help on this game and when to unlock hunt.
Im not gonna go back in the office rtoday rIm we just noticed it is not a good thing to be sure we have all wowiwo and Im sorry that its just a weird way of getting our friends out of it in the back lol we have to wait for the first time in a week so Ill try and get our stuff together and now tif we will be there soon bye to our friends lol we just woke us a hug from us and we were just thinking of it.
Best game Ive ever played since 2015 or something.
Great game, it just isnt updated much and tedious to go up stages after a while.
This game is extremely entertaining the way everything is amazing. We definitely would recommend this to someone.
